I have this feature turned on in my Amazon account.

Today I reported a formatting problem with a book over the live chat feature. I was told that there was a newer version of the book available that fixed the problem.

I would have expected this to have been updated automatically, as per the setting!

Does anyone know how this is supposed to work?

Is there any way of finding out if a book has a newer version available? I asked the Live Chat operative and they reeled off about ten books that had an update ready. there must be a way for me to see this myself.
